研究目的
To explore the production of very low-cost Zn1-xMgxO powders and their potential applications as precursors for advanced light emitters, focusing on their structural and optical properties.
研究成果
The study demonstrated the possibility to grow Zn1-xMgxO microcrystals in the whole composition range using a low-cost method. The structural and optical properties of the samples suggest their potential for advanced optoelectronic applications and as precursors for growth of advanced light emitters.
研究不足
The study did not manage to realize compositions in the 20–50% range, and laser beam scattering was very strong for Mg composition higher than 87.5%, limiting the probing of the full composition range.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized the Hydro Micro Mechanical Activation (HMMA) method for producing Zn1-xMgxO microcrystals. This method involves milling a water suspension of ZnO + Mg(OH)2, drying it, and then heating it in air at temperatures between 900 and 1200 °C.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Precursors of 99.9% ZnO and 98% Mg(OH)2 were used. The desired mole fractions of the powder were activated in water by HMMA for 7 s, dried at 100 °C for 1 h, and then calcinated in a static furnace at temperatures from 700 to 1200 °C for 1 h in air.
